The article is devoted to defining the understanding of quality of life and analysis of key issues of life in a pandemic. The need for a philosophical understanding of the problems associated with overcoming the effects of the pandemic has been noted. The significant impact of quarantine restrictions on people's behavior, lifestyle, development of the economy, education and tourism is emphasized. Quality of life in a pandemic is defined as a comprehensive indicator of meeting the needs of people, taking into account material, psychological and social factors. The article notes that the consequences of the pandemic are manifested in the rethinking of human life, the need to resolve financial and economic contradictions, psychological problems, achieving comfort and security. Improving the quality and standard of living should occur not only through socio-economic levers of influence, but also through deep philosophical thinking, awareness of further steps to overcome the effects of the pandemic.
